Coldwell Banker Realty

Kellene does an exceptional job and I think you would find her services useful.  She has substantially improved every property I have had her work with including one this weekend.

She does an amazing job enhancing what a property has to offer.  Kellene's services include providing art, home decor and "soft" staging (e.g., pillows, bedding and much, much more), or providing staging advice to a realtor or their client. 

Veronica Golden 
Occupied Staging Client

I was a fortunate client of Hidden Gem Design Co. during a difficult time. I was trying to sell my home in a down market and was having trouble with my listing. My realtor believed professional staging or pictures weren't necessary. After a month with no interest, I was introduced to Kellene of Hidden Gem Design Co. by an aerial photographer. Kellene was punctual and prepared with her design plan. I used her service to stage my home and hire a professional photographer. Her work was amazing. After staging, my realtor received offers within hours of re-listing. The house sold in a few days, even before an open house. Kellene made my home appealing, and I sold it for above asking price after multiple offers. I'm truly blessed to have found this Hidden Gem.

Elevating Home Appeal

Occupied staging allows sellers to continue living in their home while it's on the market, eliminating the need for temporary relocation or additional expenses.

By working with the existing furnishings and décor, we transform lived-in spaces into inviting environments that resonate with potential buyers. Our goal is to strike the perfect balance between showcasing the home's unique charm and ensuring it feels welcoming and comfortable to outside viewers.
